ReRAM test chip demonstrations for AI at the Edge showing
simultaneous object classification in one iteration for facial
recognition and car license plate recognition featured at Embedded
Vision Summit

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — May 14, 2018 —
Crossbar, the ReRAM technology leader, today announced its ReRAM
technology for artificial intelligence (AI) is available for licensing.
The company will demonstrate its test chip for AI at the Edge at the
Embedded Vision Summit booth number #606, at the San Jose Convention
Center. The demos will show Crossbar’s ReRAM for AI in action on facial
recognition for accelerating object classification with deterministic
performance.

In addition, Sylvain Dubois, vice president of business development and
strategic marketing, will speak on the topic of a “New Memory-Centric
Architecture Needed for AI” on Wed., May 23 at 12 p.m. to 12:30 p.m. at
the Summit.

“The biggest challenge facing engineers for AI today is overcoming the
memory speed and power bottleneck in the current architecture to get
faster data access while lowering the energy cost,” said Dubois. “By
enabling a new, memory-centric non-volatile architecture like ReRAM, the
entire trained model or knowledge base can be on-chip, connected
directly to the neural network with the potential to achieve massive
energy savings and performance improvements, resulting in a greatly
improved battery life and a better user experience.”

About Crossbar, Inc.

Crossbar is the leader in ReRAM technology, enabling kilobytes to
terabytes of always-on data storage to be embedded into any processor,
microcontroller, FPGA or as a standalone memory chip. Crossbar ReRAM
lets designers rethink the compute/storage paradigm, free from the
constraints of traditional flash and DRAM memories. From “persistent
memory” that brings data closer to CPU to “cognitive memory” that
enables in-memory computing without a host CPU, ReRAM is ushering in a
new era of data storage and processing for both edge and cloud
computing. For more information, visit
